4 pages of useless PC specs and GB hard-legging will do that.

ETA:6 pages

Did you know Anti doesn't even have a next gen console. That's why he's so bitter.

WUT!?

I haz XBONE bro!
I just dont play destiny. Didnt like the beta and not a fan of space games. Been playing the shite out of AC4 and really lloking forward tp The Evil Within. As absurd as it sounds COD is back on my radar too.

It's fantastic so far! It as a lot of familiar stuff that you will see from Assassin's Creed and Arkham but it definitely has it's own flavor. The world is cool and gothic and feels lived in. The enemy literally is everywhere and if you make a bad decision, you will pay. And the nemesis system is really interesting. There is a little bit of an easy abuse that enemies don't climb to well so there were quite a few times where I'd just climb something and the 30 enemies on the ground wouldn't be able to follow, but it's not a make or break that you can do that.

Here's a little story from my gameplay earlier.

I was doing a mission earlier and I ran into Tumhorn the Destroyer whose only vulnerability is to stealth. Knowing that there was nothing to do, I hightailed it. He pursued with some followers. I came to a canyon and there was some giant troll like creature causing havoc in it. I had no chance killing it so I just crossed to the other side and climbed up. I looked behind and the orkswere standing on the other side of the canyon staring at the troll thing, to scared to follow. Eventually they did jump down into the canyon and they got demolished. Except Tumhorn who single highhandedly kills the beast. Meanwhile another captain comes upon me and I kill him, and just as I do, Tumhorn walks up and finishes me off.

Oh, for old schoolers, I think health might regenerate but it does extremely slowly so it makes things pretty difficult so far. I've died more than I want to admit.

Thank you for the first review on this 6 page review thread.

adendem, health does not regenerate and the most annoying thing so far for PS4 users is the game makes heavy use out of the speaker on the ps4 controllers and it's really poorly done. Every time you move through brush or you come to something you need to switch to wraith mode for, it blares and it feels really out of place and I was hiding in my room earlier playing this hoping for my roommate to think I wasn't found and the controller sound gave me away.

I'll differ this one to ILikeLSUTOO

Every time you respawn, the enemies appear with different locations and patrols.

Jesus fricking mary this is a big download.

When you're standing in the muddy road on a sunny day the day after a rainstorm and you see the reflection from thousands of puddles, you'll be ok with the download.
